A perfect accommodation for visiting Marfa!

Our family has stayed many times at the Austinite Marfa. It is a wonderful location near the center of town and always clean and comfortable. Having the amenities of home while staying in vacation setting makes the holiday even more enjoyable. We recommend this home for anyone planning to experience the beautiful West Texas experience of Marfa.

The Austinite is fantastic

First, the decor is charming. Add comfortable beds, a lovely backyard, and a convenient location and this place made for a relaxing and fun weekend. I would return in a heartbeat.

The Perfect Marfa Cottage

We just did a weekend trip to Marfa with two couples and this was the perfect place to stay. It is walking distance from cute coffee shops, restaurants, and the main little downtown area, which was very convenient! It was so nice having a cozy cottage to come back to and relax after exploring Marfa and Big Bend. We had plenty of space and loved the outdoor living areas as well. Looking forward to coming back!

Wonderful cottage in Marfa!

We absolutely loved this house! Lots and lots of room and everything you need to make your stay perfect. Lauren was responsive and helpful, the house had lots of information about the town and was big - easily sleeps 10! We spent lots of time relaxing on the patio and enjoying the quiet with only the fountain making a sound. Easy to walk to almost all the Marfa businesses. Can't wait to stay here again!

Sizable house in quiet neighborhood

House is a bit dated (too many old doors), bedroom doors don’t lock/ glass windows on interior doors, small washer/dryer, but overall a nice place and great location. Enjoyed it.

Exactly as advertised

This place is just a 2-minute walk from the county courthouse. It's well-maintained, roomy, and in a quiet neighborhood. The neighbors are friendly, and Marfa is incredibly relaxing. Lauren stopped by briefly for a quick maintenance trip, and she shared her family's history with the property. You can tell it has been maintained with care.

Marfa May 2024

We enjoyed staying at this property, especially enjoyed the backyard. The check-in info said the property had a dishwasher and printer. It has neither. We made other arrangements for the item we needed to print. The lack of a dishwasher was no big deal for us but might have been if we had a bigger group.
